If your a head with time listen to each show from this tour in order- man, its really something to hear the progression of these tunes man.

Note to self:

This is one GREAT show...Listen to this when I don't want to give a damn about anything...when all I want to do is smile and be happy...Pigpen, Jerry and the boyz take me to that place I once lived in...a time before this crap monument erected itself in my psyche...

This show has everything I like...I don't know what the recording is like because I was outside my front door building a stone planter and I didn't critique the sound quality...BUT...the show rocks from beginning to end...the energy is kick-ass all the way through

Remember this show forever...listen to it in emergency emotional situations....especially those tunes where Pigpen lets loose....

Perfection. It is a very powerfull word. A word that conjurs up visions un-imagianable. We all love Euroupe 72'. This is so much beyond that; yet making this whole 72 run more beautiful. I don't know what went on there in those old winding streets of Denmark but F*%@. This is beautiful. Perhaps the best Grateful Dead concert I have ever hear.
Between the comlete tightness and pocket filling groove of theses guys; the stage banter is hillarious. This is the Grateful Dead.
I will say it... this is one of the best shows I have ever heard in my life.
Q? Some of this may have ended up on the album but I don't think so....
This show is why we are all using this archive to listen to shows to begin with....
ENJOY and DOWNLOAD!

Notes

This is a pitch/speed fixed version of shn id 34552 The lineage is extended as follows: SBD -> (16 Track) Master Reel -> Dat (44.1k); Dat (Sony R500) -> SEK'D Prodif Plus -> Samplitude Profesional v8.01 -> FLAC -> Adobe Audition 1.5 -> pitch/speed correction* -> flac -> TraLiHe -> sbe's fixed


Note: Bert Slany, 07/23/2006

--All tracks suffered from speed/pitch slowness to different degrees:

--disc 1: an average 1.8% slow
--disc 2: also approx 1.8% slow
--disc 3: an average 2.3% slow
--disc 4: an average 3.5% slow

--I have no good explanation for why the speed/pitch offset varies between individual
discs, but it does. (were these different DAT tapes, i.e. A/D transfers done with
different hardware or at different points in time possibly by different individuals?)

--both patch sources are also affected by a speed/pitch offset, but to so small a
degree that I did not try to fix it.

--logic as well as physics dictate that in the analog realm speed and pitch most
likely vary together to proportional degrees. Anything else is the absolute
exception. I.e. in this case a tape ran slow somewhere in the analog part of
the lineage and thus yielded a low _and_ slow collection of tracks (I doubt the
direct 16 track -> DAT). This can also be heard by the keen ear in the original
transfer as a _speed_ difference between the patch sources and the 16 track
source. In the analog realm one would therefore fix the the pitch of the show
by e.g. letting the mixdown tape run faster, affecting both speed _and_ pitch.
There are tools in almost every digital audio processing software to achieve
just that in the digital realm. If you have grave concerns and don't follow the
logic of this argument, you might want to consider preparing another fixed
source.

--the lineage of the show is updated as follows:

flac -> Adobe Audition 1.5 -> pitch/speed correction* -> flac -> TraLiHe -> sbe's fixed

*To fix the slow pitch/speed of this show I loaded the individual tracks into Adobe
Audition. I then used the following tool to work on the pitch/speed:
"Effects" -> "Time/Pitch" -> "Stretch" -> "Constant Stretch" -> "Stretching Mode" set to
"Resample (preserves neither [pitch nor tempo]) -> "Compress" to "Ratio" of choice -> "OK"

--To ascertain the correct "ratio" I used a six string tuned to concert pitch A=440
Hz and "tuned the song" until I felt I had the correct pitch. I only ever used
_one_ transformation step for tuning to the correct pitch/speed. The result is an
even nicer sounding show.

--If one were so inclined, one could burn this show to three discs instead of four:

--1st disc: d1t01-13 + d2t01
--2nd disc: d2t02-06 + d3t01-02
--3d disc: d3t03-08 + d4

--Thanks to Charlie Miller for supplying us with this beauty of a recording. Lots of
dynamics and transparency galore in this one!! Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!!!
